YEAR IN REVIEW 2023
As 2023 comes to an end, Infinity Rehab is reflecting on our accomplishments as a company. Here are some highlights we are looking back on in our year in review.
ADVOCACY IN WASHINGTON, D.C.
Stacey Turner, Vice President of Operations, recently advocated for several healthcare and therapy issues on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. While attending the Advion Legislative and Regulatory Conference, she met with several senators to discuss important issues. It was the first time Infinity Rehab has met in person since 2019.
REBRANDING OF THERAPY MANAGEMENT
Infinity Rehab relaunched and rebranded its newest business division, Management by Infinity Rehab (MIR), in March 2023.
Initially introduced in April 2022, Management by Infinity Rehab gives healthcare providers flexible solutions. The program can help providers assess their readiness for rehab management options and determine the cost-benefit of making a change successful. In addition, customer programs are created explicitly based on the needs of their patients, residents, and facility circumstances.
SYMPOSIUM CONFERENCE 2023
The Symposium conference was held virtually on May 20, 2023. It provides therapists the opportunity to network and build their clinical skills, as well as earn continuing education credits.
Team members and clinicians at Infinity Rehab, as well as outside therapists, attend from different areas throughout the United States. During the one-day event, clinicians networked and learned by attending courses tailored specifically to them and their daily practice. This year’s event had a new shortened one-day format and featured both live and on-demand sessions. We welcomed keynote speaker Christopher Ridenhour.
CELEBRATING OUR THERAPIST HEROES
We took time to honor our amazing clinicians! Fellow teammates nominated heroes for Occupational Therapy Month in April, Better Hearing and Speech Month in May, and Physical Therapy Month in October. Congrats to all the nominees.
